In this paper, the dynamic characteristic of vibrating system which has translational and rotational degrees of freedom is studied. The moment of inertia of the system is modeled here as the inerter and the equivalent model to the system is proposed using dynamic stiffness method. It is shown that the size of inerter plays a major role to determine the dynamic characteristic of the system. This two degree of freedom system(DOF) is applied as a dynamic vibration absorber(DVA) to the elimination of single peak of main body. The solution for the undamped DVA is presented in analytical form while the damped DVA is designed using fixed point theory. The numerical examples are presented for verifying the methods.

This study developed the perspective model of behavior of physical therapists(PTs) and occupational therapists(OTs) who are dealing with confidential patient medical information in hospitals. Theory of planned Behavior(TpB) model, expanded models 1 and 2 that add habit, social pressure, and work convenience concept to TpB are tested for the validity in explaining the preposing factors that affect the behavior of PTs and OTs in ensuring the confidentiality of patient medical records. Data were collected by administrating a survey to the 120 PTs and OTs in A city. Of the 120 questionaries distributed, 110 were responded resulting 91.6% of response rate. There were not significantly different among the group classified by age, 'clinical career, gender, work family, and education level were analysis using with Independent t test and one-way ANOVA. The relationships on the concepts suggested in the models were analysed by applying the Structured Equations Modeling methods. The results of Structured Equations analysis showed that expanded model 2 was more effective model than TpB model and expanded model 1.

The purpose of this study is to predict the forming limit diagram (FLD) of strain-rate sensitive materials on the basis of the Marciniak and Kuczynski (M-K) theory. The strain-rate effect is taken into consideration in such a way that the stress-strain curves for various strain-rates are inputted into the formulation as point data, not as curve-fitted models such as power function. Tensile tests and R-value tests were carried out at several levels of temperature and strain-rate from $25^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$ and 0.16 to 0.00016/s, respectively to obtain the mechanical properties of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet. The FLD of this material was experimentally obtained by limit dome height tests with the punch velocity of 0.1 and 1.0 mm/s at $250^{\circ}C$. The M-K theory-based FLD predicted using Yld2000-2d yield criterion was compared with the experimental results.

In this study, a review is made of the previous work(Ref. 1 and 5) for the development of the limit design method of the flat rectangular grillages under the lateral pressure. And the effect of the in-plane loads on the collapse theory is considered. The main part of the work is devoted in developing the standard design method of grillages under the criteria of minimum weight and minimum cost. In the final part, it was shown that Pareto solution methods can be easily applied to structural optimization with the multiple objectives, and the designer can have an appropriate choice from those Pareto optimal solutions.

The disturbance observer (DOB) has been widely utilized for high precision/speed motion control applications. However, it still lacks the analysis for the robustness and performance brought by using DOB. This paper proposes the robustness measure of DOB and reveals the relationships between the disturbance rejection performance and the order/time constant of a Q filter in DOB. Additionally, we propose six guidelines for the design of Q filter and show their validity through the experiments for DVD systems.

We present a numerical model which enables to analyze $1.47mu$m amplification band characteristics for thulium doped fluoride fiber amplifiers. We focused on upconversion pumping scheme, thus many transitions affecting $1.47mu$m band amplification was considered simultaneously. Backward propagating waves and transverse mode were also considered in the model. The parameters for modeling were then acquired using published experimental data and related theories such as Judd-Ofelt theory for radiative transition, empirical energy gap law for non-radiative transition, and McCumber relations for cross-sections. The simulation showed well-matched results with experiment and internal dynamics. amics.

A performance of reactor coolant pump in two-phase flow is examined using the pump geometric conditions and the performance of the pump in single-phase flow. Wall friction loss of the reactor coolant pump in single-phase flow is prdicted using the Truckenbrodt boundary layer theory, and the head loss in two-phase flow is predicted with calculated well friction loss and separation loss coefficients. The analysis results are compared with the Combustion Engineering pump test data. The effect of two-phase multiplier on the peak clad temperature in Loss-of-Coolant Accident is also examined using the RELAP5 and the results indicate the importance of its accuracy.

The main objective of this work was to study the efTect of pressed density of pellets prepared from an oxide powder on their fired density and to prove experimentally the parabolic relationship proposed by FORD. A-I6 and A-J7 alumina powders. which showed quite dlfrerent powder characteristics but were essentially very reactive powders, were employed, and a series of pelIets weIe pressed in a 1l.2mm diameter hardened steel die with a hydraulic press and a mechanically operated press in order to obtain a wide range of pressed demity. Density ranges from 35 to 65 % theoretical for A-16, and 46 to 66 % theoretical far A-17 were obtained and the highest pressed density achieved using lubricant was 67.8 % theoretical. CompactlOn mechanisms for A-16 and A-I 7 were deduced. Several plots of ($D_F$-$D_P$) against DpjDT showed reasonable parabola and temperature dependence and the maximum density increase occurred when the pressed density was approximately 50% theoretical. The parabolic relationship was confirmed by linear plot of ($D_F$-$D_P$) against (1-$\frac{D_P}{D_T})$).

We have investigated the half-metallicity and magnetism for the Heusler ferromagnet $Co_2$ZrSi interfaced with semiconductor ZnTe along the (001) plane by using the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method. We considered low types of possible interfaces: ZrSi/Zn, ZrSi/Te, Co/Zn, and Co/Te, respectively. From the calculated density of states, it was found that the half-metallicity was lost at all the interfaces, however for the Co/Te system the value of minority spin density of states was close to zero at the Fermi level. These facts are due to the interface states, appeared in the minority spin gap in bulk $Co_2$ZrSi, caused by the changes of the coordination and symmetry and the hybridizations between the interface atoms. At the Co/Te interface, the magnetic moments of Co atoms are 0.68 and $0.78{\mu}_B$ for the "bridge" and "antibridge" sites, respectively, which are much reduced with respect to that ($1.15{\mu}_B$) of the bulk $Co_2$ZrSi. In the case of Co/Zn, Co atoms at the "bridge" and "antibridge" sites have magnetic moments of 1.16 and $0.93{\mu}_B$, respectively, which are almost same or slightly decreased compared to that of the bulk $Co_2$ZrSi. On the other hand, for the ZrSi/Zn and ZrSi/Te systems, the magnetic moments of Co atoms at the sub-interface layers are in the range of $1.13{\sim}1.30\;{\mu}_B$, which are almost same or slightly increased than that of the bulk $Co_2$ZrSi.

The quantitative measurement of interfacial adhesion energy (Gc) of multilayer thin films for Cu interconnects was investigated using a double cantilever beam (DCB) and 4-point bending (4-PB) test. In the case of a sample with Ta diffusion barrier applied, all Gc values measured by the DCB and 4-PB tests were higher than 5 J/㎡, which is the minimum criterion for Cu/low-k integration without delamination. However, in the case of the Ta/Cu sample, measured Gc value of the DCB test was lower than 5 J/㎡. All Gc values measured by the 4-PB test were higher than those of the DCB test. Measured Gc values increase with increasing phase angle, that is, 4-PB test higher than DCB test due to increasing plastic energy dissipation and roughness-related shielding effects, which matches well interfacial fracture mechanics theory. As a result of the 4-PB test, Ta/Cu and Cu/Ta interfaces measured Gc values were higher than 5 J/㎡, suggesting that Ta is considered to be applicable as a diffusion barrier and a capping layer for Cu interconnects. The 4-PB test method is recommended for quantitative adhesion energy measurement of the Cu interconnect interface because the thermal stress due to the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion and the delamination due to chemical mechanical polishing have a large effect of the mixing mode including shear stress.
